《A Lady of a Certain Age(Edit)》歌词

[00:00:00] A Lady of a Certain Age (Edit) - The Divine Comedy
[00:00:06] Back in the day
[00:00:07] You had been part of the smart set
[00:00:11] You'd holidayed with kings
[00:00:14] Dined out with starlets
[00:00:16] From London to New York
[00:00:19] Cap Ferrat to Capri
[00:00:22] In perfume by Chanel
[00:00:24] And clothes by Givenchy
[00:00:26] You sipped camparis with David and Peter
[00:00:33] At Noel's parties by Lake Geneva
[00:00:38] Scaling the dizzy heights of high society
[00:00:44] Armed only with a cheque book
[00:00:46] And a family tree
[00:00:49] You chased the sun around the Cote d'Azur
[00:00:55] Until the light of youth became obscured
[00:01:00] And left you on your own and in the shade
[00:01:06] An English lady of a certain age
[00:01:11] And if a nice young man
[00:01:14] Would buy you a drink
[00:01:17] You'd say with a conspiratorial wink
[00:01:22] You wouldn't think that I was seventy
[00:01:27] And he'd say
[00:01:29] No you couldn't be
[00:01:36] You had to marry someone very very rich
[00:01:41] So that you
[00:01:42] Might be kept in the style to which
[00:01:46] You had all of your life been accustomed to
[00:01:52] But that the socialists
[00:01:54] Had taxed away from you
[00:01:58] You gave him children
[00:02:00] A girl and a boy
[00:02:03] To keep your sanity a nanny was employed
[00:02:08] And when the time came
[00:02:11] They were sent away
[00:02:14] Well that was simply
[00:02:16] What you did in those days
[00:02:19] You chased the sun around the Cote d'Azur
[00:02:25] Until the light of youth became obscured
[00:02:30] And left you on your own and in the shade
[00:02:36] An English lady of a certain age
[00:02:41] And if a nice young man
[00:02:44] Would buy you a drink
[00:02:47] You'd say with a conspiratorial wink
[00:02:52] "You wouldn't think that I was sixty three"
[00:02:57] And he'd say
[00:02:58] "No you couldn't be"
[00:03:06] Your son's in stocks
[00:03:08] And bonds and lives back in Surrey
[00:03:12] Flies down once in a while
[00:03:14] And leaves in a hurry
[00:03:17] Your daughter never finished
[00:03:20] Her finishing school
[00:03:23] Married a strange young man of
[00:03:26] Whom you don't approve
[00:03:28] Your husband's hollow heart
[00:03:30] Gave out one Christmas Day
[00:03:34] He left the villa to his mistress in Marseilles
[00:03:39] And so you come here
[00:03:41] To escape your little flat
[00:03:44] Hoping someone will fill your glass
[00:03:47] And let you chat about how
[00:03:50] You chased the sun around the Cote d'Azur
[00:03:55] Until the light of youth became obscured
[00:04:01] And left you all alone and in the shade
[00:04:06] An English lady of a certain age
[00:04:12] And if a nice young man
[00:04:14] Would buy you a drink
[00:04:17] You'd say with a conspiratorial wink
[00:04:23] "You wouldn't think that I was fifty three"
[00:04:28] And he'd say
[00:04:29] "No you couldn't be"
